If theres anybody out there. I adjusted my IAC it fluctuated between 1-7 ...not good then it shot up to 258 and high rpms. Fitech says it should be between 1-10. Timing ? Major vacuum leak?

 

Are you letting the FiTech do its accelerator pump thing? Or just cranking it?

 

Got a fuel pressure gauge?
Does it bleed off as soon as you key off?
If it does can you block off the return line and it NOT Beed off?
Possibly a fuel pressure regulator.

 

Ha should help alot when i hook my wire to my ignition 12v while cranking should help it start . Jesus tits, thought i had it in the right spot but it was a little oversight. While cranking over and over the pump would shoot enough gas in a prime shot to eventually get it to fire but confused the hell outta the computer. My bad.

 

Im interested in a review of the system once you have it going for a while.

 

Not sure if you use Facebook or already are aware of the group but this group https://www.facebook.com/groups/1138882606178838/ seems to be pretty good at helping people get their issues figured out.

 

Thanks for the link .might come in handy! Havent driven it much because ive been busy at work . But install was very easy. And seems to be running well so far.

 

I just installed a fitech system on my Scout II 392. had same issue with cranking and cranking and finally starting, was getting frustrated. Found out the white wire from the fitech needs 12v when key on "and when" cranking. once I got that wire hooked to the right voltage it fires up first turn of the key.

 

I'm considering FiTech on my '74 Scout 304. What distributor are you running on your 392 and is it controlled by the EFI ECM? Are you happy with it's performance so far? What should I know about installing it on a binder engine? Thanks!

 

I am running a rebuilt prestolite electronic, (OE). I did not get the fitech that had the timing control so its not hooked up to run off the EFI unit. just vacuum and mechanical advance. The base setting as long as the wires are hooked up should get it running, however you will need to do some fine tuning, its not hard just need to find the instructions online and follow them. the IAC (idle air control) is the big one. once you get it fine tuned it runs like a raped ape. I also used the fuel command module so I could use the mechanical fuel pump and only had to run a vent line back to the tank. I ended up mounting the fuel command center on the firewall on the drivers side of the hood latch. (its pretty big).
